Good to see #construction #growth helping to offset slow #economy
Sky News
@SkyNews13 Apr 2023
Civil service strikes and low energy consumption offset growth in areas such as construction - which grew 2.4%, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) data showed trib.al/EbtRjo2

UK economy flatlines with no growth in February as strikes hit productivity

The lack of growth was unexpected - 0.1% had been forecast.

Women make up just 15% of people working in construction. 🚧 Improving diversity and inclusion can bring a wealth of skills and labour to the industry, but how can SME builders address the issues and bring about change? 👉 bit.ly/3T2Gljg #ConstructionUK #Builder
